About Keystone Partners Accountant Solutions

Who we are?

Keystone Partners is an accounting and wealth management firm which is Self Licensed under AFSL no 356871 trading as RPD Group Advice. Being an accounting firm we understand your business and the challenges faced every day by an accounting firm.

Keystone Partners is partnering with other accounting firms to provide a solution to the loss of the Accountants Exemption and the (FoFA) changes. Being Self Licensed means we have no obligation to any product provider and in particular the large banks. This makes an ideal situation for us and you to provide impartial advice to both our clients on a Fee for Service basis

  • Licensing solutions for SMSF advice and more
